German Law to Blame For 18+ Rated Wii U Content Block In Europe

I already made extensive posts on Joystiq about this:

There is no such law in Germany for games or any retail/digital content. If there were such a law it would not be possible to buy Saints Row 3, Halo Reach, God of War 3, GTA IV or any other 18+ game at any German retailer during daytime. But as I said it's not, you can buy all of those, nude mags and melee weapons at any given time.

As I said before, the problem may be the videos in the eShop, not the ability to buy the game. Buying the game will need an age-verification too, but that may be handled different. But for instance Amazon made Post-Ident for me, buying a USK18-game.
